Over the course of W's administration, there have been several instances of town and / or city governments doing stupid things like passing resolutions to impeach Bush and Cheney, indicting them on war crimes, trying to kick the Marine recruiting station out of town, and other things that qualify as an exceptional waste of taxpayer money.
Most recently, Boulder, CO is the latest town to jump on the "resolution calling for impeachment" bandwagon. Of course, this isn't the first time Boulder has let the rest of the world know how they feel about W's foreign policy and the war. They passed a resolution condemning the initial invasion in 2003, and then in 2006, they passed a resolution calling for the withdrawal of US troops from Iraq.
If you read the article, you'll find that the city council members actually think this is a good idea. Wouldn't it be a better use of time to try and reduce the number of rapes in Boulder, CO each year? After all, Boulder, CO was above the national average for rapes per capita.
Anyway, instead of sitting here and pointing out just how stupid this idea is, I'll just post a link to a classic Onion article. I've never been to a town hall meeting, but I'm pretty sure this is what happens when you let people talk about anything they want to in a public forum, kind of like Boulder, CO.
